Appeal Successful
Summary
Jacksonville Associate Jack Garwood secured an appellate victory after Plaintiff’s counsel filed a Notice of Confession of Error on July 31, 2023. At the trial court level, the court had held that service of process had been properly effectuated under Florida’s substituted service of process statutes. However, it was clear from the record that Plaintiff had not strictly complied with the substituted service statutes as required. The substituted service of process statutes are to be strictly complied with because of due process concerns. After reviewing the cases cited in the initial Appellate Brief, Plaintiff’s counsel stated that he could not say that the statutes had been strictly complied with. Specifically, Plaintiff’s counsel referred to one of the cases in Appellant’s brief—Monaco v. Nealon, 810 So. 2d 1084 (Fla. 4th DCA 2002)—as one he could not get past. Plaintiff’s counsel stated that he has never confessed error before, but that due to the cases cited in Appellant’s Brief, he had to in this case.  Read More

Result:
Summary Judgment
Summary
Plaintiff, Sage Beach Condominium Association, brought this action against 27 parties for alleged construction defects relating to the construction of the Association’s two condominium buildings. Our client, New Door Installation Co., installed exterior metal doors, frames and hardware. Plaintiff claimed that the materials were defectively installed and in violation of the Florida Building Code due to the existence of corrosion on the door surfaces, frames, and hardware. In addition, the general contractor, Glenewinkel Construction Company, asserted cross claims against New Door for violation of the Florida Building Code, breach of contract, and common law indemnification. Plaintiff’s expert, Toby Maxwell, P.E., and Glenewinkel’s expert, Donald Rataj, R.A., testified that the doors were properly installed, and that the corrosion was due to the exposure from the harsh coastal environment, as the condominium buildings are located on Hollywood Beach. Plaintiff, in an attempt to defeat summary judgment, provided an affidavit from Mr. Maxwell that contradicted his deposition testimony and claimed that the exterior metal doors were not installed correctly. The Court granted New Door’s motion for summary judgment stating, “This kind of change in testimony issue, on the eve of summary judgment motions, is exactly why our Supreme Court changed the Florida rule on summary judgment to align with the Federal rule.” Read More.

Ford, Dean & Rotondo, PA (William A. Dean; Michael Rotondo)
Result:
Defense Verdict
Summary:
Alleged Nursing Home Negligence; Plaintiff’s demand at trial was $350,000; Jury returned a defense verdict. On July 24, 2023, Managing Partner Michael J. Schwartz, Esq., and Senior Associate Frank Lacourt, Esq., obtained a Defense Verdict in a Nursing Home Negligence matter styled Plaintiff, as Personal Representative of the Estate of 97-year-old, Deceased v. Jackson Plaza, Inc. d/b/a Jackson Plaza Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. Plaintiff filed suit against the Defendant alleging nursing home negligence and violation of resident’s rights. The Defendant claimed that the Nursing Home staff failed to follow the attending physician’s orders to do a chest x-ray STAT, failed to timely report a lab result to the attending physician, and failed to recognize the Resident’s change in condition, resulting in the Resident’s death. The Resident in question was a 97-year-old admitted at Jackson Plaza from Memorial Hospital West after an 11-day admission for pneumonia and generalized weakness. The Resident also had a diagnosis of untreated leukemia. The Resident was admitted at Jackson Plaza for less than 24 hours.

 

At trial, the Plaintiff presented expert testimony from a Family Medicine Doctor who testified: (1) that the attending physician’s orders to do a chest X-ray were ignored by the nursing staff alleging that the order was entered upon admission to the Resident on 4/24/2019 around 3:00PM; (2) that the nursing home staff failed to immediately report the blood labs to the attending physician; and (3) that the nursing staff failed to recognized that the Resident was in respiratory distress. The Defendant presented evidence and expert witness testimony that proved that (1) the chest X-ray order was entered about the time the Resident’s condition changed on 4/24/2019, that the order was followed almost immediately by nursing staff, and that the chest X-ray was not done because the Resident was discharged via Fire Rescue before the mobile X ray company arrived; (2) the blood labs were done as ordered, and the results were received at the Facility’s fax machine 30 minutes before the Resident’s change in condition, and that it was reasonable for the results to take some time to be reported to the attending physician; and (3) the argument that the nurses failed to notice any respiratory distress was purely speculative, and not supported by evidence.  Finally, the Defendant presented evidence that the Resident’s pre-existing comorbidities, including the untreated leukocytosis and previous pneumonia diagnoses, accompanied by the Resident’s advanced age, were the likely causes for the Resident’s change in condition and ultimately death. The Resident’s change in condition was unavoidable, and the Nursing Home was not negligent. The Jury agreed with the Defendant and rendered a verdict in two hours. Plaintiff’s demand at trial was $350,000.00.  Read More.

Martin & Randolph PLLC (Sonya P. Randolph)
Result:
Defense Verdict
Summary:
Three-day jury trial; alleged water leak to a hallway bathroom and alleged drain line failure — Jury returned Defense Verdict
 
On August 18, 2023, after a three-day jury trial, Miami Partners Otto Espino, Esq., and Cristina Sevilla, Esq., obtained a full defense verdict in matter styled Jose Martinez v. Defendant Insurance Company. The lawsuit was based on a denied claim and arose due to an alleged water leak sustained by the Defendant’s Insured (Jose Martinez) to a hallway bathroom where he alleged the drain line had failed. The Insured gutted the bathroom prior to the carrier’s field inspection. The Insured also alleged the same drain line failure caused a backup in the adjoining kitchen, damaging his kitchen cabinets.
 
Defendant contended they were prejudiced by the Insured’s failure to provide the property for inspection before gutting the run and trenching the floor to remove the case iron drain lines. Defendant also defended the denial by arguing cause of loss was excluded per the constant and repeated seepage provision in its policy. This exclusion was based on the remaining building materials that were not removed from the hallway bathroom (i.e. wall studs) and based on the condition of the adjoining kitchen.
 
At trial, Defendant presented the evidence gathered during both its field inspection and engineering inspection. Mr. Espino successfully argued the condition of the bathroom was sufficient to determine the policy’s exclusion for constant and repeated was the actual cause of the Insured’s claim, and not the alleged failed drain line. The jury’s verdict found the exclusion had been properly enforced and there was no breach of contract. The verdict did not reach the question of any post-loss violations, avoiding any appellate issues related to those portions of the trial. After an hour of deliberation, the jury fully agreed and entered a full defense verdict. Read More.

Result:
Motion for Final Summary Judgment granted
Summary:
Stuart Partner Nora Bailey, Esq., prevailed on a Motion for Summary Judgment in a premises liability/personal injury matter styled Strangi, Robin and John v. Atlantic Southern Sealcoating and Paving, LLC. Our client, who was contracted to sealcoat and stripe the parking lot at a gas station, was sued for personal injuries after Plaintiff slipped on a painted portion of the lot more than four months after our work was completed. We moved for summary judgment based on the Slavin doctrine and argued that Plaintiff was impermissibly stacking inferences to prove her case. The case was made difficult by the fact that it became evident through discovery that our client had inadvertently used the wrong paint as required under the contract with the gas station, who accordingly joined in Plaintiff’s opposition to our Motion for Summary Judgment. Nevertheless, the Court found that the Plaintiff had failed to prove that using the right paint would have prevented Plaintiff’s fall and granted summary judgment on all counts. Read More.

Motion for Strike
Summary:
On July 19, 2023, Senior Partner Allison Janowitz, Esq., prevailed on a Motion to Strike the Plaintiff’s Complaint based on Fraud on the Court in a trip and fall matter styled Jessica Andrade v. Gladewind Heights Homeowners Association, Inc. Plaintiff filed suit against Gladewind Heights Homeowner’s Association for injuries she sustained as a result of a trip and fall. Plaintiff claimed injuries to her right shoulder, right knee and back, in the amount of an estimated $200,000. Plaintiff specifically claimed that she sustained injuries limiting her ability to bend over, carry groceries and other items, and function without a motorized cart at the grocery store.

Surveillance found the Plaintiff grocery shopping for several days without the use of any assistive devices and bending over on the ground.
 
The Court found that the Plaintiff’s testimony regarding her limitations were contradicted by the surveillance videos, and that with her testimony, the Plaintiff set into motion an unconscionable scheme calculated to interfere with the Judicial System’s ability to impartially adjudicate a matter. Read More.

Florida Insurance Law Group, LLC.
Result:
Defense Verdict
Summary:
Fort Lauderdale Junior Partner Jeremy Fischler, Esq., secured a dismissal in the First-Party Property matter styled You Restoration LLC a/a/o Ali Althis Bastardo v. Defendant Insurance Company. Defense filed a Motion for Summary Judgment in which it argued that the Defendant made full payment under the Policy’s Managed Repair Program. Specifically, the Plaintiff performed water mitigation services on behalf of the Insured, and received a partial payment after carrier review of the estimate. The Insured thereafter rejected the carrier’s offer to utilize the Managed Repair Program, thereby limiting the claim under the Policy to $10,000.00. The carrier sent the balance of the Policy limits to the Insured. Plaintiffs argued that this payment, made after the carrier was notified of the water mitigation services, could not have discharged the carrier’s obligations to pay the full invoice presented by Plaintiffs. The day before the hearing, Plaintiffs advised that they would abandon the case and submitted a dismissal. Read More.

Plaintiff Counsel:
Your Insurance Attorney
Result:
Dismissal/Walk-Away
Summary:
Partner Jeremy Fischler obtained a favorable result in a first- party property matter styled Maria Mejia v. Defendant Insurance Company in the Circuit Court of Broward County Florida. Plaintiff reported a Hurricane Irma claim to Defendant in 2019, and Defendant denied the claim when the field adjuster could not identify a storm created opening.
 
Defendant pursued two primary defenses in the matter — first, that there was no storm created opening, and second, that late reporting prejudiced the investigation of the claim. In litigation, the Defendant was able to establish that while the loss was not reported until 2019, Plaintiff was aware of the damage in 2017. In that two-year period the Plaintiff made repairs to the Property, including the roof. Therefore, Defendant was able to argue that the investigation was prejudiced. Defendant was also able to document the Plaintiff’s continued inability to comply with discovery requirements.

A hearing on the Motion for Summary Judgment was set for February 2023, with trial set for March 2023. Based on the Motion for Summary Judgment, combined with the well-documented inability of Plaintiff to comply with discovery, Plaintiff agreed to dismiss the matter with no money paid by Defendant. Read More.
